Aiaiai TMA-1

The Aiaiai TMA-1's name takes inspiration from "2001: A Space Odyssey," which may be your dad's favorite movie from his youth. These $200 headphones cut a stripped-down physical profile with no joints to weaken their structural durabilit, and their solid construction is backed by a detailed headstage that makes them an excellent candidate for dads shopping for a stylish headset and neutral tonality for mixing music.
